Strictly's Katya Jones joins dating app as ex-husband Neil dates Love Island star

Strictly Come Dancing star Katya Jones has reportedly joined celebrity dating app Raya in a bid to find love again.

The professional dancer, 33, is said to be in search of love three years after her split from ex-husband Neil Jones.

Katya has reportedly joined the exclusive app amid Neil's new romance with Love Island star Chyna Mills.

The Strictly Come Dancing professional has reportedly set up a profile which reads: "I believe in people. Creativity is my food. Passionate about sustainability. Also a bit of a nutter."

The dancing queen is believed to have added a collection of her most sizzling snaps to her profile, including several bikini photos which show off her athletic figure, according to Mail Online.

Katya and Neil were married for six years and split in 2019 following Katya and Seann Walsh's kissing scandal - although they insisted that had nothing to do with the end of their marriage.

Several other famous faces have also been spotted on the exclusive celebrity dating app, including fellow Strictly Come Dancing professional, Giovanni Pernice, actress and TV star Emily Atack, and Capital FM presenter, Roman Kemp.

The Mirror has reached out to Katya's representatives for comment.

Katya's dating news comes after her ex-husband Neil revealed that he and his Love Island girlfriend Chyna are taking their romance slowly.

Neil, 40, and and 23-year-old Chyna have been making loved up appearances in public since they were spotted on a romantic trip in Paris in August – weeks after Chyna left the Love Island villa.

The couple appear to be going from strength to strength, with Chyna even tattooing Neil recently. But, Neil has exclusively revealed to the Mirror that he and Chyna are enjoying getting to know one another slowly.

When asked if the pair are planning on living together, Neil said: "We don't know yet, we're having such a nice time together, still getting to know each other – she's putting up with me slowly."

The couple first sparked romance rumours in August as the pair were seen getting cosy at an afterparty. Weeks later they took a romantic trip to Paris together.

Neil was previously married to Katya but the pair parted ways after 11 years together in 2019.

Announcing their separation, they said: "We will always love each other, just in a different way as friends. This will never change what a great team we make and we are really proud of everything we have achieved together."
